Looking for stats data of "old" Haproxy process after reload

Hello,

I am running an HAProxy version 2.0.13-2ubuntu0.1.

When I perform a reload on HAProxy to load new configuration, I am aware, that this spawns a new process and therefore (some) stats are reset.

But for me, the old process keeps running, and especially keeps holding “already present” connections.

This brings me in the situation, where the stats page and the stats socket tell me, there are eg. 5 established connections, but in reality, there are >100 connections established in the “old” process.

Is there a way to:

• Make the new process also showing the existing connections for the old one, or
• Have the new process taking over already existing connections, or
• somehow still access the stats socket for that old process?

I would be totally fine, gathering my data from multiple stats sockets, if due to a reload, multiple processes are running. But sadly I seem to only get one socket and only the data from the newest process.

My config:
